full Bill Lawrence tv squad interview

Its A very long interview and starts here its 3 pages long so go check it out

it also has a few spoilers for next year.

JK: The show's not coming on until mid-season again, right?

BL: Yeah, I would assume -- my guess is it's going to be on in November if I had to -- that's, it's not really off the record it's just my guess because I think that's when the next Dancing with the Stars installment ends at the end of November.

JK: Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask about the NBC finale. What was your reaction when they determined that "My Princess" was going to be the finale?

BL: Oh man, what could I do? I said fuck it because, you know, how am I going to fight that fight? It pissed me off just because -- here's what pissed me off. First of all the episodes were out of order, you know what I mean? So like anybody who pays attention to the show would be like, "Hey, Dr. Kelso's character was fired two episodes ago and now he's back working around the hospital again."

Secondly, you know, I heard it marketed, and bandied about as the series finale of Scrubs which just absolutely sucks for two reasons. One, the only reason to say that is to hopefully help it on their own network but also to damage it on ABC and secondly, I wasn't allowed to go out and refute that because they were still in contractual and, you know, legal haggling about whether ABC could have the show.

And the third thing that just pissed me off was that particular episode, we spent a lot of time on and worked our ass off and if everybody was just watching television in a normal season and that episode came on, I think people would really dig it. When it's sold to people as a series or even a season finale, neither of which it was supposed to be, you know, and then they're looking at everything as, well, J.D. and Elliot say they decided meant nothing so they -- it put such a burden on the show that the episode that I will continue to argue is really, really good, people are taking giant shits on it. It bummed me out.

Christa Miller and Bill Lawrence Interview

Is it harder to say serious medical stuff than funny medical stuff?

Christa Miller: “Yeah, it's much harder. It gets jumbled up on your tongue. I'm not used to saying things that…”

Bill Lawrence: “Are you saying that it's easy doing Scrubs?”

Christa Miller: “No, it's much harder doing comedy.”

Bill Lawrence: “That's what I thought you were going to say.”

Christa Miller: “But it's harder doing words that my husband doesn't write for me.”

Bill Lawrence: “Although you know the guy that wrote this won the Pulitzer Prize. Trying to give me props, it's like, ‘The last thing I wanted to do is read the words of a Pulitzer prize winner.’”

Christa Miller: “My husband just has a boy crush on Robert Schenkkan, the writer.”

they're calling this the Scrubs finale. That's not the final finale, is it?

Christa Miller: “No, we're still shooting. I don't think I'm allowed to say anything more than that but I'm working next week, if that means anything.”

How does it feel to be back?

Christa Miller: “So fun. It's great to be back and also it's great to feel that we're not just going to be ending.”

Bill, if you want to jump back in, this isn't the final finale?

Bill Lawrence: “I wouldn't think so, because I came straight from work.”

Neil Flynn indiana Jones Interview

It's very cool to be in a big movie like this," Flynn said in a telephone interview Wednesday from his home in the Los Angeles area. "It's kind of a culturally iconic film. It's like being in one of the 'Star Wars' movies."

Flynn is also happy that "Scrubs" has been picked up by ABC and will be back with a new season next year following its seven-season run on NBC.

"It's all good news. ABC has owned us all along, so I think the show may be treated better by its biological parent," Flynn said, mentioning its multiple time slot changes on NBC.

There might be a ninth season of Scrubs, says Bill Lawrence

I finally got a chance to speak with Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence yesterday, and, as you'd expect, he had plenty to say about departing NBC. In addition to the circumstances behind the show's move from NBC to ABC, Lawrence also talked about NBC's treatment of the show and why he thinks it stuck around for so long, despite that treatment.But he also dropped a bit of a bomb: next season may not be the show's final season. And if there is ninth season of Scrubs, it likely will continue without him or Zach Braff on board.More after the jump.
Bill told me that he met with ABC Entertainment president Steve McPherson, who initially championed the show when he worked for the network's production arm (ABC Studios produces Scrubs), before the network finalized the pickup. McPherson told him that not only did he want the show to get back to what it did best in its earliest seasons, which mixed comedy and drama, but that he didn't necessarily pick up the show for just the one season:"He said to me, 'If I go forward with this, you have to know that if the show does well and I'm enjoying it, no matter what you want, I have the right to move on with the show past this year,'" Lawrence recalls. "I tell you that, even if it were to happen, it would be in a different incarnation than what it is now. One of the things that's appealing to Steve is that when he first pitched it with me to all these other networks, he pitched it as 'ER as a comedy.' It'd be very easy to rotate faces in and out and have new dynamics and new worlds under the same umbrella. It's a working hospital. It's not like Grey's Anatomy where we're tracking the relationships that much."As far as how the show would look in a ninth season, Lawrence said that "barring some weird miracle," Zach Braff is done with the show after season eight, since his contract runs out at the end of it. But he can't see himself returning for a ninth year, either. "I would imagine it's my last year of the show. And so I'm going to write it as such (like it's the last season) and he's going to act it as such."So those new actors, including Human Giant's Aziz Ansari, that were brought on as new interns? They'll be the basis of any new seasons after the eighth, setting up a Scrubs: The Next Generation of sorts. "They have to go through the same type of shit that these people went through long ago. It'll be interesting to tell the same stories with our older characters on the other side of them now." Some faces from the original cast may return, but not all will.Interesting. This could work, or it could limp along like ER has since Clooney, Edwards, and Margulies left. Or it could be AfterMASH-style disaster. We just don't know.What do you think of a possible "next generation" season of Scrubs? Let me know in the comments.Oh, and the rest of the interview will be posted either tomorrow or Thursday.

Scrubs Season 7 Review

Check out this positive season 7 review here

Bill Lawrence on Scrubs Continuation

NBC advertised the most recent episode of Scrubs as the finale. As fans knew that season seven was to be the last, they might have worried that the episode, which did not address, let alone resolve, many long term plot threads, was it. Actually, because of the writer's strike, the show will continue a little bit longer.
Lawrence Puts On Some Extra Scrubs"Yeah, man, we're making episodes all summer so we're doing more than what we intended," said Bill Lawrence. "We just have to wait for a few hours to find out where it's going to be on. There's legal stuff going on. It's very weird being at work. It's like we work in a vacuum. We've been working for a couple months now." This extra eighth season is a bonus for the fans, though it does make Lawrence's job more difficult. "Both a bonus because I love working with the people and it's the greatest job on earth and a burden because it was cool to be headed towards the ending and to have to do more than those seven episodes we have outlined is tough writing the same show for eight years, but it's fun." As Scrubs wraps up, expect to see all your favorite guest stars. "This year, expect the greatest hits file. One of the things we do on Scrubs is that all the guest stars on the show have been, we call then friends of the family. They're cast friends and writer friends, so anybody that you liked in the past that we didn't kill off will be on the show again."
But what about the people we liked that they did kill? "I don't know how to bring back Brendan Fraser. He's dead, man. So is Nicole Sullivan. It's tough. It'd have to be in a fantasy or something but we're going to try to get everybody that's been on the show back on the show." At least we'll get more high fives with The Todd. "Oh, are you kidding me, every time the guy steps on set. He's not playing a character. That's his real schtick, man. You can't stop that guy. He'll be all over the place doing the same thing I'm sure." Wait to see where Scrubs will appear next

Scrubs Gets New Blood Transfusion

Dr. Cox is going to have three new souls to torture when Scrubsmoves to ABC next season. Sources confirm to me exclusively that Betsy Beutler(The Black Donnellys), Eliza Coupe (HBO's 12 Miles of Bad Road) and Aziz Ansari (MTV's Human Giant) are joining the cast as Sacred Heart's newest interns. The trio will appear on a recurring basis.The injection of new blood is part of an ambitious plan to return the show to its more drama-filled roots.-Ausiello Report

Scrubbing In

Scrubbing In: Now that Scrubs is officially on ABC's midseason schedule, the series is looking to kick festivities off with a major star. Names such as Jennifer Garner and John Cusack are being considered to replace Kelso as Chief of Medicine for the eighth season's first three episodes, though nothing's been decided as of yet.

Scrubs Boss Blasts NBC, Previews "Serious" Changes

Scrubs Boss Blasts NBC, Previews "Serious" Changes

One of the many reasons I love Bill Lawrence is that the dude doesn't mince words. At a time when sound-bites have become as carefully crafted as a Martha Stewart petit four, Bill continues to tell it like it is. And on the heels of the official confirmation that Scrubs is headed to ABC for an 18-episode final season, he has a lot to tell. About the show's network-hop. About the beef he has with the suits at NBC. And about the somewhat radical changes in store for J.D. and Co. Why'd it take so long to announce this thing?Bill Lawrence: As I understand it, it was legally very important not to say anything officially until after the show had finished its run on NBC. What led to the break-up with NBC?Lawrence: When the strike ended, we told NBC that, even though we had another seven episodes mapped out, we could do it in three, and they just didn't have any interest. Total harsh buzz of not giving a s--t about a show that had been on the network for seven years and made them millions of dollars. And I'd be more bitter, except that it worked out good for us. They didn't want to do any kind of wrap-up?Lawrence: Not only did they not want to do any kind of wrap-up, but they took an episode that was supposed to air in the middle of the season — the fairytale episode — and marketed it as a series finale. Which was bulls--t. It was never supposed to be a series finale, much less a season finale, and I think it ended up getting judged kind of harshly because of it. If it was just a regular episode that people had tuned into I think they would've thought it was cool and funny. I was under the impression NBC was willing to give you one episode to finish things off. No?Lawrence: Well, here's the thing. When the strike ended, NBC said, "You can shoot an hour-long finale, but we'll only pay for half of it." They wanted [ABC Studios] to suck up all the expenses, and ABC said that was unacceptable. And it felt especially harsh because Scrubs was pulling in better [ratings] than 30 Rock and My Name is Earl — even though I love those two shows — and they were encouraged to do as many f--king episodes as they can after the strike. And after seven years, I ask for three episodes to wrap up the series and they say, "Tough s--t." How do you go from three episodes on NBC to 18 on ABC?Lawrence: It was weird, man. I was thinking we'd put these last six episodes on DVD, just so we can wrap the show up and be proud of it, but the head of ABC Studios, Mark Pedowitz, said, "Bill, if you can make the show a little cheaper, I can probably get us a full season on ABC." I didn't answer right away. The first thing I did was call the cast and the writers together and I said, "Look, if we're going to do this, we have to get back to something we creatively can all be excited about." Because, personally, I felt like this past season we were less than inspired comedically. So I said to them, "This means you guys working harder. It means having emotional stakes and losing all the goofy, broad stuff that I think is easy to write… " And everyone said they were on board for one more season. Will the show still be a comedy?Lawrence: It's still a comedy, but when we first did the show, it was a drama with elements of comedy and lots of stupid sound effects. But some of the strongest episodes in the second and third year had character comedy. You can still do things like kill Brendan Fraser and have the lady that loved musical theater die and then sing a song at the end. This became a very Simpsons-esque show with incredibly broad, unrealistic moments and fantasies that were both in reality and not in reality. When you've been writing this show for seven years, it's so easy to get into these patterns of writing the same jokes over and over: J.D. loves Turk, J.D. wants Dr. Cox's approval, Elliot's whiny and neurotic. But this year the stuff is really f--king good. I think our old stand-by fans are really going to dig these shows. Is Ken Jenkins (Kelso) still a series regular?Lawrence: He's still a series regular. The core of his participation this year is with Dr. Cox, who becomes Chief of Medicine. Now that Dr. Kelso is no longer a hospital bureaucrat, he is actually a decent human being and is Dr. Cox's confidant because Cox can't really talk to anyone else about how much that job sucks.I heard you were looking to cast a new Chief. Lawrence: That's just a piece of stunt casting that we're going to do for three episodes. Talk to me about these budget cuts that ABC requested. Are we going to notice anything missing?Lawrence: No. We have a smaller writing staff and we're filming the show in four-and-a-half days instead of five. And, you'll never notice it because we have so many actors on the show, but every cast member is taking two episodes off. Even Zach?Lawrence: Even Zach. Remember, I've done one or two episodes every year where J.D. isn't in the show except for one line, and some other character has the voiceover. It wasn't all that noticeable. It just looks like a cool creative choice.OK, Scrubs fans, you buying what Bill L. is selling? Does the prospect of a more grounded, less zany Sacred Heart make you giddy with excitement? Would one episode on NBC have been enough of a send-off, or are you happier with the 18 we're getting on ABC? (I think I know the answer to that one.)

Wacth With Kristen

ABC

Bubba: Will Dr. Kelso be returning to Sacred Heart Hospital next year when Scrubs moves to ABC?Word on the street is that Kelso will be appearing now and again while on his retirement at home, but that they will bring in a new chief to run the Scrubs hospital.

Ask Ausiello

Question: Now that we officially know Scrubs is returning on ABC as a mid-season show, I only have one question: How many new episodes will we be getting? — Mike
Ausiello: Eighteen episodes, but there's a twist. Several twists, in fact. Check my Ausiello Report blog later this week for more on that.
